"I'm not disappointed with anything and I wanted to be the first athlete to get a medal in six different Commonwealth Games appearances."

Morgan has now won at least one medal in every Games he has appeared in, starting with gold at the age of 17 at the 1982 Games in Brisbane.

Another gold followed in Edinburgh 1986, three more in Auckland 1990, two further golds and a silver in Victoria 1994, then a silver four years later in Kuala Lumpur.

Brown's defence of the title he won in Malaysia seemed on course after gold in the snatch in Manchester, but he then chose to enter the clean-and-jerk late at 175kgs.

The Australian failed twice at that weight then upped the bar to 177.5kgs for his final lift as he sought to pressure his rivals only to fail again, falling out of the medals for the discipline and overall.
